FAQs

The Louis XVI style emerged in France during the late 18th century as a reaction against Rococo extravagance, favouring neoclassical symmetry, straight lines, geometric forms, and classical motifs such as fluted columns and acanthus leaves.

These chairs were traditionally crafted from solid hardwoods like beech, walnut, or oak, often finished with gesso and paint, and upholstered in rich textiles such as needlepoint, silk damask, or brocade.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery, hand-carved detailing with natural tool marks, traditional upholstery methods using horsehair or straw, and appropriate wear patterns on the painted or gilded surfaces consistent with age.

Pairing classical neoclassical seating with minimalist or contemporary furnishings creates a sophisticated contrast, allowing the ornate wood and patterned upholstery to serve as a focal point within a neutral colour scheme.

Maintain the painted finish by dusting gently with a dry microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleaners, and protect delicate wool or silk needlepoint upholstery from direct sunlight to prevent fibre degradation and fading.
